CONFLUX SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Participants in Conflux share an interest in psychogeography [ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychogeography ]. Projects presented range from interpretations of the classical approach developed by the Situationists to emerging artistic, conceptual and technology-based practices.

At Conflux, participants, along with attendees and the public, put these investigations into action on the city streets. The city becomes a playground, a laboratory and a space for the development of new networks and communities.

WHAT TO SUBMIT
Here are examples of the types of projects and events we're looking for:
- exploratory drifts/dérives
- walks with hacked maps or experimental navigation techniques
- alt.tours by foot, bike, subway, bus
- social/environmental research and fieldwork
- workshops
- temporary public-space installations/interventions
- performance projects
- street games
- mobile-tech/locative media projects
- social networking projects that focus on cities and urban life
- project presentations, panel discussions and lectures.
- film/video works for a film series event.
- audio projects and musical performances for night events

Projects may take place in the neighborhood surrounding the gallery, in other public-space locations in NYC, in the gallery or in a different venue you provide.

PLEASE NOTE: We are not doing an exhibition this year. You may provide handouts, maps, flyers, etc. for your project but not artwork for the walls. There will be wi-fi in the gallery.
